PS: I was one of them, picked up my Para in April. Sorry Philw, it is just soooooo easy here. My condolences on your politicians, although I fear you will be saying that about us in the not too distant future.

Me too, Mossberg 500

Tom,
Like the mossberg.  Did it come with the swivels and short like that or was it cut down?  Was it new?  I don't think I've seen a short Mossberg like that with a wood stock before.

Sadly, I too am a contributor to this April trend. I picked up 2 during the last month and I fear I may end up with 2 or maybe even more this month. I hate to be a burden on all those anti's out there trying to keep record. It must be a real headache to have to add all those numbers together. Those poor, poor record keepers. ;D

HAHAHA, I say we try to make it even more this month. Let's set a goal to break 1.5 million. It's already half way through the month of May so, if you haven't thrown money at your gun dealer, get out there... Remember - Only YOU can cause Liberals a conniption.

Used, came with factory 18.5 inch barrel, I had to add the sling swivels, also included a top folding pistolgrip stock but since it covered the safety  I decided not to use it.
Next, and probably last thing is to replace the brass bead with a fiber optic.

I am happy to go on record as stating that I am a part of the problem.  I did my part earlier in the year to really raise the bar to make this record tougher to achieve, and I was going to lay low and save for a nice M1, and a rifle and shotgun for cowboy games ... but ... sidetracked  ;D  A local big box gunshop bought a collection and put over a hundred guns on the market at really good deals.  I ended up with a couple that I had been looking at for less than I had seen anywhere before  ;D

I've been called a trouble maker before, and I'm proud to be one today!
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Yep, I'm one of them. And I'll be on the June list as well.
